Thrombotic Angiitis and Congenital Asplenia
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1965THE SPLEEN has a well-known role in the regulation of blood thrombocyte levels, and its absence may contribute to the occurrence of recurrent infections, as cited by Smith et al 1 and Finland. 2 We have recently cared for a middle-aged man with congenital absence of the spleen, who had pneumonia, an acute inflammatory aortic-arch syndrome, and multiple

Functional Asplenia in Sezary Syndrome
Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1980A case of functional asplenia revealed by radiocolloid scanning is reported in a patient suffering from Sezary syndrome, a lymphoma of cutaneous origin.

FROM ASPLENIA TO SEVERE INFECTION: The most serious consequence of asplenia due to absence of the spleen, its resection or its functional failure is the risk of severe infection. RAPIDLY PROGRESSIVE SEPTICEMIA: It is estimated that the risk of death due to septicemia is 200 times higher in splectomized patients than in patients with a spleen.
